The sweltering heatwave in Delhi has led to a startling phenomenon captured in a viral video. As temperatures soar, reaching up to 52 degrees Celsius, water in a rooftop tank appears to bubble and shake as if boiling. The video prompts speculation about the consequences of using this water for bathing or other household purposes.

Shared on social media by user Tathvam-asi @ssaratht, the video raises eyebrows with its claim that the Delhi heat is causing water to boil at temperatures far below the usual 100 degrees Celsius boiling point. While some are intrigued by the footage, others express skepticism, citing the laws of science that dictate water’s boiling point and the limitations of life forms to survive extreme temperatures.
Despite the debate sparked by the video, comments from viewers vary, with some dismissing it as misleading while others ponder the possibility of technical explanations, such as overheating due to external factors like the tank’s material or heat absorption from the surroundings.
The video serves as a reminder of the intensity of the heatwave gripping Delhi and the need for caution and accuracy in disseminating information amid such extreme weather conditions.
